AC Compressor issue

The AC compressor in my 91 Turbo convertible is clearly old and seen better days. Usually in the summer to get it going I would have to charge it just to get the compressor to kick in--the low pressure switch cuts it out till you build some pressure charging it but it always worked. This time I found that the pressure even with the compressor not yet engaging was still pretty high-about 70 pounds already. I bled some out, down to about 45 pounds, but it still would not come on or take much of a charge. The pressure would shoot almost immediately back to 70. I have a good gauge so I think the reading was accurate, but it seems weird to have high pressure even if the compressor is not compressing. Thoughts? Thanks
